So I'm playing XII for the first time after playing XIII for the first time.

How exactly did they go from XII to XIII? These games couldn't be more different.

>>136106656
Dont bother with dailies until you got a good chunk of the dungeons done.
They give you lods of mythril and orbs too.
Stamina is obviously very good too.

>>136107108
>Is this the 5 o'clock free mythril giveaway?

>>136107287

bit too different ever since they finished x

>>136107139
The put gays in charge of XIII.

>>136107139
XII had ambition and a team that loves world building
XIII was led by a waifu monger

>>136107287
It's more from the perspective that X and XIII are quite similar games and then XII sticks out like a sore thumb.

it's a shame about the combat system in XII because the setting and the visual design was great

>>136107634
At least in IZJS you can hold L1 to fast forward through the combat

>>136107612

X and XIII have some similarities but good fucking god are the differences in the combat system important enough to make that statement fucking retarded

>we will never get an HD remake of IZJS where all of the characters have a different outfit for each job
suffering

>>136107870
A lot of the design choices from X are in XIII

The combat system is different obviously but that's only one part of those games

>>136108121

yeah the core part

>>136108121
>but that's only one part of those games
And probably the biggest part. Considering they're, you know, games.

hey for this quake sequel i swapped out the clicking on enemies part with a quick round of bejeweled to defeat the enemy. you still walk around bizarre alien fortresses though so it's basically the same

>>136107256
Everyone knows girls can't do shit other than suck dick.

>>136108121
yea
minecraft and doom are also basically the same game

>>136108230
>>136108254
>different
very different combat system

>similarities
very linear
crystarium and sphere grid
very cinematic


I'd imagine those are enough to call those games "quite similar" in comparison to XII

I didn't say they were the same game, just that XIII is an evolution of what they did with X.

>>136108810

you said something fucking retarded. own up to it

>>136108121

>>136108810
The crystarium and sphere grid aren't even all that similar.

Not on its own, but the lock/teleport spheres and such let you really change a character's progression if you wanted to.

>>136109424
You can do that too in FFXIII, except the different paths are contained in their own grid.

>>136109668
a revision I got to play on launch back then in europ.

>>136109424

kinda, but it mostly just amounted to picking a class out of White Mage, Black Mage, Breaker, Time Warrior, Ranger and Thief

sure you could switch classes but why would you? and you could use a few tele spheres to pick up a skill or two but i never felt that you really had enough orbs for that to be particularly interesting

not until the post-game anyway but then you just break the system completely

>>136109972
It'll be filed under White Magic.

>>136108893
I don't think it's that crazy to say a lot of FF XIII's design is following on the same trend of what is done in X.

>>136109635
The massive amount of experience those "secondary" paths required compared to the primary ones made them kinda pointless without tons of grinding, though.

they've already added almost all of it to black and white. it's a shame.

what core time spells are we missing anyway? Hastega, multi-target Slow, Quick?

>>136110243
The secondary paths were also pointless in FFX without tons of grinding.

>>136110243
besides Kimahri because his path finished early it seemed pointless to do more than max a specific class in X as well

>>136110371
>multi-target Slow
>Slowga is already In and isn't that
Weird.

>>136108254
FF X and XIII might as well be big linear movies desu

at least X has a fun combat system and some meme minigames

>>136110572

i know right

>>136110448
But they didn't require any more experience than sticking to your grid did. A sphere level is a sphere level.

>>136110692
What is XII, an open-world movie?

>>136110995

open-world historical documentary

>>136110995
XII is a game with a story - I can go do hunts or w/e whenever I want with teleport stones

I can't do that until I get an airship at the end of FF X or a weird mirror allows me to in FF XIII

>bonus battles tonight
>still haven't even finished main event
>orbfest is still here for over a week
wat do?

>>136110796
Are you aware of what is being discussed here or are you just spouting whatever retarded thing comes to your mind?

>>136111231
Phase 3 is the best time to do the FFII event, and you can do the X-2 event in phase 5.

>>136111420
What orbs in 'em, senpai?

>>136111395
Are you? I was just repeating the point I made here >>136110243.
Having someone progress in one of those secondary crystariums in XIII needed a lot more experience than just sticking to your main ones.
In X, a sphere level needed the same amount of experience no matter where you were in the grid.

>>136108230
>>136108254
I wonder if Square actually think that combat is the most important part of Final Fantasy...

>>136111678
Earth/White/Holy in 3, upgrade materials in 5.

>>136111813
>N-no, FFX is completely different than FFXIII! They use orbs! See? There are differences! That means they're completely different!

Good luck making a physical Lulu without grinding, retard.

>>136111981

probably not, no, but they've been entirely up their own asses for almost three decades now

>>136111986
No summoner? F**k it, I'll event in 5.

>>136111986

i thought II ended before the upgrade mats one went up

>>136112047
Good luck making a physical Hope literally ever. You don't even have the option, even if it needed grinding in X and is a stupid thing to do anyway.

>>136112160
Summon is phase 4.

>>136112261
It does, I was talking about using phase 5 for X-2.

>>136112047

1. use a tele sphere

well that was really fucking easy

>>136112475
thanks, bb

>>136112115
So since FF1? Perhaps it's not them who's "up their own ass", then.

>>136112115
>probably not, no
definitely not. When FF was at its most popular it was the story and characters that sold the game, not the mechanics.

i just let the II event pay for itself with a few of refreshes. sure if i really wanted to sperg out i could've made sure that they were equal to phase two refreshes and not three but whatever

>>136112475

oh right, fair enough

>>136112672

that's certainly popular recollection but i'm not at all sure that it's actually true. whole lotta kids enjoyed playing VII even though they had no fucking idea what was going on

they still did like cloud and sephiroth though that's true

>>136112672
Don't forget the unique worlds and huge production values.

>>136112893
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=utVE4aUKYuY

I mean there's about 10 seconds of battle footages in this trailer

People liked the flash, the CGI and things like that, I'd imagine if the battle system in things like VII was deeper it would turn more people off than it would keep them interested. Battles were just a mechanic to get to the next cool cutscene with Sephiroth

>>136113263
>trailer

dude. c'mon

>>136112980

huge production values seem to be more of a problem for square than an asset. god they need stricter producers.

dream big and accomplish it, not dream big and scrap it six times over

>>136113453
advert, whatever

>>136113263
I played FF7 when I was like 11 and I didn't really care about anything other than beating up monsters. I think you may be misinformed.

>>136113634
Scrapping and reworking stuff is an inherent part of any creative process. You probably won't find a single half-way ambitious book, movie, or game where the first draft closely matches the final version. In many cases, the two end up having almost nothing in common.

>>136114151

no shit, fuckface. square's production process is still dysfunctional as all hell

>>136114091
do you really think the CGI and story wasn't the main draw for FF VII?

>>136114308
Says you, an outsider with zero insight into their actual process.

>>136114443
You're wrong, fucker. I'm the CEO of Square.

>>136114443

bullshit sophistry. go fuck yourself.

>>136114091
I'd imagine you liked the high budget summon animations a lot making the monsters explode more than thinking "this battle system is great, can't wait to upgrade clouds materia"

>>136114367
The graphics were certainly a draw, but you're treating VII as a glorified visual novel with a tacked on battle system.

>>136114939

XIII is the better game. Single player MMO and random loot is for the gays.

>>136114091
Maybe you didn't, but those of us who remember the gaming community in the nineties would probably agree that the buzz and hype of the time was all about the mind blowing graphics, 3D movement, and newly maturing storytelling. The number of console gamers pretty much doubled in a few short years and it's hard to overstate just how crucial the games like Tomb Raider, MGS, FFVII and VIII, and some others were in the whole process. The PS1 games made gaming cool and exciting even for people who previously couldn't give a shit.

I think it's more that what you're looking for in Final Fantasy then and now isn't really what Square cares about

Which is why I stand by my OG statement that FF X and FF XIII are similar games with similar design choices. :^)

let's be real, this general has been pretty fantastic. the anons are great and everyone is always super helpful. I hope everyone has some good lucky pulls!

pffthahha, more like half-finished story when Matsuno jumped ship. Could have been so much more. It was so damn obvious something went wrong in development even before all that got out because the game started out interesting, but became dogshit pretty fast.

I'm actually curious about Yuna's situation now with her new event coming and that she's already capped at 80.

I've always liked her as a character and wanted to use her but it just didn't fit since I don't have a relic for her and I do for other white mages/summoners.

I know that her SSB and BSB are regarded as some of the worst, both among the rest of the cast and compared to her other relics (mainly lullaby rod) but since that one is never coming back is either of the SSB from anniversary banner or her BSB guns worth going for? I kind of just want a relic for her so I can use her regularly since her default is so useless.

>>136118602
Idk what's wrong with her SSB. Bahamut plus 50% res is neat. However, AOE heals is hard to beat and you'd be using that way more often.

>>136118079
http://finalfantasy.wikia.com/wiki/Linaly

>>136118602
Her SSB isn't bad, but her BSB is just awful.

>>136106270
If I'm journeying alone, of course I'm going to be a red mage since I need to defend myself and have some sort of white magic

>>136118739
I guess her SSB isn't "bad" but people seem to say that it does shit damage and effect for a SSB I think they probably hate it mostly since its not her aoe heal/regen.

>>136118947
But how bad really? Everything I can find on it is that its identical in damage to terra SSB, and even if the burst commands aren't great if I run her as a summoner with less ability uses it could be decent to fill the gaps?

>>136120487
If by "people" you mean "Reddit", they hate it because it's not a physical SSB. That's it.

>>136120487
>its not her aoe heal/regen.

sounds like a pretty good reason to not like

>>136121618
It's mostly because of the garbage burst commands, actually.

*it

>>136121768
I specifically said SSB.

>>136121923
Forgive my blindness.

>>136116491
fapping every play session is the obvious choice.

>>136118602
Her BSB is supposedly awful. The issue with her SSB is that it conflicts with Hymn if you happen to have that, otherwise its a solid SB. There's also the consideration that she's geared for WM and Summons/SBs are mag based which is slightly awkward.

I looked up her BSB and it really is bad. The initial animation deals 1.8x x 10 hits (equivalent to double -ja spell) and her Burst options are a stronger Ruinga (8x vs 5.9x) and a laughable H15 heal (isnt this half of 1* Cure?).

Sorry for the bad news, brother.

Her RM2 (healing staff effect) only drops on IX dungeons, like Josef and Double Hit (II only).
And you need RM1, RM2 and MC2 to unlock the chance to drop her RM3 (double summon).

...I'll still take it. Any 5 is a good 5.

>>136130870
Complete list of realm specific RM2:

Josef (II) - Double Hit
DK Cecil (IV) - Gore-stained Blade II
P. Cecil (IV) - Holy Blade
Rydia (IV) - Eidolon's Bond
Fusoya (IV) - Moon's Grace II
Strago (VI) - Blue Mage Defiance
Cid (VII) - Ace Pilot
Squall (VIII) - Gunblade
Garnet (IX) - Healer
Tidus (X) - High Scorer
Wakka (X) - Blitz-Eye

Everything else is either a specific condition or just needs a character to be in the party.

That's... not what teleport does at all. It's like DeNA is intentionally misnaming abilities to trigger my autism.

It's not great as far as SSBs go, but it's better than nothing.

>>136133678
At least Leon can use Life Siphon. Feels bad when you get some nice combat SBs but the user can't use Life Siphon.

>>136133412
actually it might be good against the ultimate. defense boost+draw fire+realm synergy

>>136133517
in FF2 it was basically instant removal of enemy at the cost of putting you in critical state. now obviously that mechanic would not be viable in RK from a balancing perspective.

which final fantasy game has the worst story?

>>136134203
So don't use that ability. Call the ability Holy XVI or something.

Can Rikku ever get the most out of Thief's Raid? I like that she brings Machinist skills to the thief class.

>>136134297
Probably 1 or 2 just because it has so little in the way of the story.

>>136134297

>>136134297

>>136134423
When she gets her MC2, yes.

>>136134415
>Call the ability Holy XVI or something.
Disregard this, for some reason I read the SB description "non-elemental white magic attacks" as "holy elemental magic attacks". They could've made it Ultima or something I guess.

1, it's a pretty simplistic story that uses the typical formula of most JRPGs.

>>136135209

or just made it holy

>>136135209
No, Minwu should not cast ultima. As he dies breaking the seal to obtain ultima. Which is fitting that the next dungeon is the ultima dungeon.

>>136135357
He gets Ultima in Soul of Rebirth. It's a spell unique to him that none of the other characters can use there.

>>136134297

It's VIII.

the script of 8 isn't coherent enough to call a story

what. how?

>>136134442
That is not really fair with FFI, the game is pretty much a D&D adventure that can be played without other people.
If you add the "adventure" aspect to this "worst story" discussion, then FFI definitely isn't the worst. But FFV definitely will be the best one.

>>136139573
A lot of the events added in a bunch of bullshit requirements to the boss fights. Now they're all "don't die".

>>136139773

It's in the announcement for FFII's bonus battles. The Actions Taken and Damage Taken medals are more forgiving from now on in bonus battles.

>>136139936

nice. getting full score on those required severely outclassing the encounter

It's great to start with, but will be outclassed easily by any other 5* relic you pull.

>>136140694

>>136141343
I enjoyed A2 much more than Advance. Dunno, I liked how it was almost all side quest

>>136140694
It's your kidgloves weapon to keep you going until you get a real 5* which will outclass it by about 20 attack points.

I still use mine in ff6 dungeons, though. Same with the Gold Sword in FF7.

Oh, get the gold sword, even though it's basically 4* tier.

>>136141503

that was the worst part

>>136141550
>Oh, get the gold sword, even though it's basically 4* tier.

hey. unfair. it's clearly a 5*+

The relic draw portion of the guide confuses me. Now I'm afraid to draw anything at all.

>>136141810
>Now I'm afraid to draw anything at all.

this is correct. you should be terrified.

>>136140487
That feel.

>>136141743
A 5* that caps at 80. I should probably be feeding it to one of my SSB 5*s.

>>136141810
What part confuses you? The drawing method? If you just started, lucky pull is a good choice right now, especially because of the hall of rites (summon characters based on the 5* stuff you got).
After that you will eventually get used to how the game works and decide when you want to spend or save mythril by yourself.

Friendly reminder that the RK guide might as well have been written by a redditor and you're all redditors by proxy for buying into this shit.

>>136143438

man you go through IPs quick

>>136143356
It's a 11x pull that costs half as much as normal, and any 5* you get is guaranteed to be a unique soul break relic.
You should do it if you haven't yet, especially if you're just starting.

>>136143354
how much you gonna drop on Locke's ssb?

>>136143709

I'd recommend starting over completely, this is a good opportunity to get something really good since they're giving 25 mythril for free for a Luc.

I expected nothing so I guess I can't be disappointed, at least now I will have a reason to farm D.Cecil's RMs.
But I will just skip the next two phases and wait for SSBfest. If I find a way to resist my gambling addiction.

>tfw 450 mythril
I've simply become too afraid to spend it.
I don't want the disappointment.

>>136145063
Use everything on stamina refreshes.
Even if you never get a single major, at least you still can use rest of the orbs you got to craft them.
The same can't be said about the 3* garbage you will get from pulls.

>>136145063
Do Lucky Draw, dude. I drew three 5*, one of which was a good SSB.

Is record keeper fun? And can I still get Y'shtola?

You can get any 3 characters you want now thanks to the Hall of Rites.

You should take that other guy's advice and start over if you haven't completed anything at all yet.

Lucky Draws are the only "must draw" banner because they are half off normal price which compensates for the diluted 5* pool.

Do your Lucky Draw first and see who you get equipment for before using your Hall of Rites passes.

Yes. They gift you 25 Mythril for the pull so you can attempt it immediately.

As for starting over...I'm not sure. Google it?

>>136146827
>no boosted drop rates
Anon, it's 12% for a 5* like every other banner.
"No boosted drop rates" means that there's no relic that's more likely than another like with the other banners.

>>136146789
If you do, do it quickly. Only 40 minutes til phase 2 starts.

>>136147249
What? It's like 4 hours and 40 minutes until phase 2.

>>136147249
>40 minutes until phase 2 starts

It starts in like 4 hours and 35 minutes. RK updates only ever happen at three specific times of the day.

You should restart until you get something GOOD from a lucky draw. Not all 5*s are very good. If you're not sure about whether or not the thing you got is good, ask.
It might seem like a pain in the ass to do, but it's definitely worth it.

I didn't like Bluestacks. Too laggy and bloated for me. I switched to Droid4X which is significantly faster, smoother, and lighter but it's ching chong made and I'm pretty sure it tried to install a trojan which I blocked.

Nox seems like a good option, but I have no experience with it.

Genymotion seems good, but also no experience with it.

Does Lightning ever actually legit cry in any of the games?

I know early on in XIII she pretty much said her good bye to Serah then left. Why didn't she shed a tear? Shock?

>>136150154
She cries in the "lets see her together" scene with Snow on Pulse. Chapter 11. Love that scene t b h

>>136150154
A goddess does not have tears to shed.

>>136150154
I think she gets teary in the ending. She's usually cold and stoic though, and in XIII-2 she's a divine entity and in XIII-3 she loses all her emotions. So she doesn't really have that many chances.

>>136149407
Well i can speak for Nox and say it's awesone. I use it for other graphic intense games like Shironeko Project.

>>136150364
>she loses all her emotions
But she still has some of it, and it shows when she does side quests and interacts with NPCs. She's even aware that Bhunivelze took them away from her so she won't turn against him.

>>136150154
I think she also cried in Duodecim, but i'm not sure.

She did die in there, tho. Not even a goddess is any match for zerg rushes.

Agnes I could sort of understand, but Edea is just great. And both are top tier qts

>>136152498
I hope it's less like the first game in which:
A) the story sucks
B) the game is easy to break
C) some classes are strictly better than others

It's a shame they brought back the town rebuilding thing. I always hated that part of the first game. I got plenty of street passes, but I felt like it would've been better if the people rebuilding the town were actual people you met on your journey, and you could go and visit them. The way they handle it feels like a chore instead. And now... it's on the moon. Which is lame.

>>136152934
It is mechanically pretty strong, though kind of easy to break. I don't know what the super optimized teams were but exploiting See You in Hell + Rise From the Dead let me defeat all the Ba'als easily.
